What Is the Difference between Tahajjud and Qiyam Al-layl?
1. Qiyam al-layl means spending the night, or part of it, even if it is only one hour, in prayer, reading Quran, remembering Allah (dhikr) and other acts of worship. 2. Tahajjud means specifically praying at night, and some scholars limited it to prayers that are offered at night after sleeping. 3. Taraweeh refers to qiyam al-layl in Ramadan at the beginning of the night, which should be made light and not lengthy. It may also be called tahajjud or qiyam al-layl.
